@scritrice yeah, it did--there was no confirmation receipt. I actually had CNRed it a week or two before she eventually responded!

@bookwormwrites Did it take her until your partial request date to respond? Or did she give you a confirmation of receipt before that? I did end up sending mine through the online contact form back in December.

@scritrice assuming you don't need to attach sample pages at this point, you can submit through the agency contact form! That's what I did a couple of months back and she did receive it and respond. Or, tweet at her to ask--others may have the same question and want to see the answer :) best of luck!!

Ms. Paquette also fave'd my #DVPit pitch a few weeks later. I tweeted to her that she already had my full from Pitmad and she said she was backlogged in her reading, but it went to show how much she loved the book's premise. Ack! Now, to wait...
